Psalm 13: A Responsorial Setting
Just are thy ways, and true thy word
Appears in 63 hymnals Topics: Temptations overcome; Temptations overcome Lyrics: 1 Just are thy ways, and true thy word,
Great Rock of my secure abode:
Who is a God beside the Lord?
Or where's a refuge like our God?
2 'Tis he that girds me with his might,
Gives me his holy sword to wield;
And while with sin and hell I fight,
Spreads his salvation for my shield.
3 He lives, and blessings crown his reign,
The God of my salvation lives,
The dark designs of hell are vain;
While heavenly peace my Father gives.
4 Before the scoffers of the age,
I will exalt my Father's name,
Nor tremble at their mighty rage,
But meet reproach, and bear the shame.
5 To David and his royal seed
Thy grace for ever shall extend;
Thy love to saints in Christ their head,
Knows not a limit, nor an end. Scripture: Psalm 18:30-31
Just are thy ways, and true thy word

Stand by me.

In the midst of tribulations,
Stand by me;
When the hosts of hell assail,
And my strength begins to fail,

3 In the midst of faults and failures,
Stand by me;
In the midst of faults and failures,
Stand by me;
When I do the best I can,
And my friends misunderstand,
Thou who knowest all about me,
Stand by me.
4 In the midst of persecution,
Stand by me;
In the midst of persecution,
Stand by me;
When my foes in war array
Undertake to stop my way,
Thou who saved Paul and Silas,
Stand by me.
5 When I’m growing old and feeble,
Stand by me;
When I’m growing old and feeble,
Stand by me;
When my life becomes a burden,
And I’m nearing chilly Jordan,
O Thou "Lily of the Valley,"
Stand by me. Used With Tune: STAND BY ME

With grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns, Thy only crown,
How art Thou pale with anguish,
With sore abuse and scorn!
How does that visage languish
Which once was bright as morn!
2 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered
Was all for sinners' gain;
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But Thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Savior!
'Tis I deserve Thy place;
Look on me with Thy favor,
Vouchsafe to me Thy grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest friend;
For this Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
O make me Thine forever;
And, should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never,
Outlive my love to Thee.
Amen. Scripture: Mark 15:17 Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE Text Sources: Latin, 12th C.

Thy great Name we praise and hallow;
From believers be it far
Any other Guide to follow;

Wilt direct our steps aright.

To enjoy earth’s fleeting treasure.
After Christ they’re called to go,
His reproach they count a pleasure;
Under manifold distress,
Through the narrow gate they press.

In Thy love together banded,
To advance where Thou dost lead
Doing what Thou hast commanded.
Heart and hand we pledge Thee here;
Give us grace to persevere. Used With Tune: CONFIDENCE Text Sources: St. 1, M. tr.; St. 3, M. tr., 1911

With its shadows o'er me. [Refrain]

Just beyond the river. [Refrain] Used With Tune: NEAR THE CROSS
